Bio not provided

The language in the NDAA act of 2012 was co-authored by Carl Levin (Michigan) and John McCain (Arizona). Both Levin and McCain re-worded the NDAA provision ALLOWING the indefinite detention of American at the request of the White House. Most notably, Chris Hedges, Noam Chomsky, and Daniel Ellsberg (all technically liberals by today's definition) filed suit against Obama and the provision was struck down by Judge Katherine Forrest, an Obama Appointee. The measure still stands now despite Forrests' ruling on appeal by the DOJ.
